  • Finn-Ancial Times Finncap Financials & Insurance Quarterly Sector Note
    finn-ancial Times finnCap Financials & Insurance quarterly sector note Q3 2020 | Issue 9 Highlights this quarter: Elevated uncertainty and volatility have been hallmarks of the last 18 months, with Brexit, the UK General Election and more recently COVID-19 all contributing to the challenges that face investors wishing to carve out solid and stable returns amid these ‘unprecedented’ times. With this is mind, and simulating finnCap’s proven Slide Rule methodology, we found the highest quality and lowest value stocks across the financials space, assessing how the make-up of these lists changed over the period January 2019 to July 2020, tracking indexed share price performance over the period as well as movements in P/E and EV/EBIT valuations. The top quartile list of Quality companies outperformed both the Value list and the FTSE All Share by rising +2.5% over the period versus -5.4% for the All Share and -14.3% for Value stocks. Furthermore, the Quality list had protection on the downside in the market crash between February and March 2020, and accelerated faster amid the market rally between late March and July 2020. From high to low (January to March), Quality moved -36.3% against the Value list at -45.5%, while a move off the lows to July was +37.4% for Quality and +34.0% for Value. There was some crossover between the Quality and Value lists, with 7 companies of the top quartile (16 companies in total) appearing in both the Quality and Value lists. This meant that a) investors could capture what we call ‘Quality at Value’ (i.e.

  • Rating Action, Barclays Bank UK
    Rating Action: Moody's takes rating actions on Barclays, Lloyds, Santander UK, Nationwide and Close Brothers, following update to banks methodology 13 Jul 2021 London, 13 July 2021 -- Moody's Investors Service (Moody's) has today taken rating actions on Barclays, Lloyds, Santander UK and Close Brothers banking groups and on Nationwide Building Society, including the upgrade of the long-term senior ratings of Lloyds Banking Group plc and Close Brothers Group plc. The rating actions were driven by revisions to Moody's Advanced Loss Given Failure (Advanced LGF) framework, which is applied to banks operating in jurisdictions with Operational Resolution Regimes, following the publication of Moody's updated Banks Methodology on 9 July 2021. This methodology is available at this link: https://www.moodys.com/researchdocumentcontentpage.aspx?docid=PBC_1269625 . A full list of affected ratings and assessments can be found at the end of this Press Release. RATINGS RATIONALE Today's rating actions were driven by revisions to the Advanced Loss Given Failure framework within Moody's updated Banks Methodology: a revised notching guidance table, with thresholds at lower levels of subordination and volume in the liability structure have been applied to the UK banks and Additional Tier 1 (AT1) securities issued by banks domiciled in the UK have been included in the Advanced LGF framework, eliminating the previous analytical distinction between those high trigger instruments that were deemed to provide equity-like absorption of losses before the point of failure and other AT1 securities. Moody's removal of equity credit for high trigger Additional Tier 1 (AT1) instruments from banks' going concern capital means that affected banks have reduced capacity to absorb unexpected losses before the point of failure, everything else being equal.

  • Conflicts of Interest
    Conflicts of Interest As required by SRD II, IVIS has to disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interest or business relationships to its subscribers that may influence the preparation of its research and the actions undertaken to eliminate, mitigate or manage the actual or potential conflicts of interests. For a description of how these conflicts of interests are managed, please see IVIS’s Response to the UK Stewardship Code and Proxy Advisors Regulations where we set out in detail our approach to managing conflicts of interests. We have grouped together companies where there is a potential conflict of interest in the preparation of IVIS reports from strongest to weakest, into the following four categories: 1.
